The Lelo Mia 2 is one of the most discreet vibrators I’ve ever seen. Easily passing as a lipstick (check out the picture below) or even with the top removed a simple USB flash drive. The vibrations are very quiet considering their strength and once recharged via a USB port, can last for ages.

The style

The Mia 2 is one of the most stylish bullet vibes on the market and is every bit as sexy, stylish and well made as you would expect from a sex toy made by Lelo. It’s pretty unique in that not only is it rechargeable, but it’s rechargeable via a USB port. You could plug this into your laptop to recharge in a crowded room and you may get a few jealous stares at your ‘girly USB flash drive’, but it’s so discreet that no one would be any the wiser as to it’s true nature.

The packaging

Mia comes in a beautiful black box and a white satin bag that make it perfect as a gift. In the box is also the instruction booklet and USB cable.

The material

Mia is made from hard ABS plastic which is very smooth to the touch and delightfully slick when lubricated. It’s buttons are made of soft silicone, as such it should not be used with silicone based lubricant. The only seam is where the USB charging end slides off, with the cap pushed firmly closed this seam can barely be felt during use.

The size

Mia is 4.5 inches long and about 1 inch around. It looks exactly like a USB flash drive or lipstick and when in use is almost silent making this one of the most discreet vibrators I’ve ever had the pleasure of using.

Features

It’s quietness is not reflected in the power given out though. The Mia 2 packs a deceptively strong vibration with multiple settings. The control panel consists of a ‘+’ and ‘-’ button which lets you increase from a subtle to strong vibration and choose from 3 different patterns. Holding both buttons down for 5 seconds switches it off and locks it so it can’t be accidentally activated during storage or travel. To unlock do the same, holding both buttons down until a red LED under the buttons comes on. This light also indicates when the battery power is running down and flashes whilst being charged.

Cleaning

Cleaning is simple. Being non-porous plastic means a simple wipe down with a damp cloth or toy cleaning wipe is sufficient.

The Lelo Mia 2 verdict

My experience with the Lelo Mia 2 was wonderful. The vibrations run the entire length of the toy, not just the tip, although the tip is where there’s the most power. It’s perfect as a clitoral vibrator or for nipple play and teasing.

The We-Vibe 4 Plus is the latest couples toy from We-Vibe which uses bluetooth technology to sync with its app available for iPhone and android. The We-Vibe couples toy has already come a long way from the original and looks a lot more confident than the We-Vibe 2 and the original We-Vibe 4. We-Vibe do make a great bullet vibrator, the We-Vibe Tango.

Packaging

The We-Vibe 4 Plus comes packaged in a lovely sturdy box with watercolor imagery which runs throughout the range. The front features the name of the product and image of the couples toy and remote. Inside the box, the We-Vibe and remote are secured in a foam insert with the charging port underneath, above a white cardboard box which holds the instruction manuals and charging cable.

Material

The We-Vibe 4 Plus is made from smooth body safe silicone all over. There is no charging insert point on the vibrator so it is 100% waterproof. Use water based lubricant with this toy, never silicone based. The We-Vibe 4 Plus is available in pink, purple or slate.

Charging

To charge the We-Vibe 4 Plus, simply sit it in the cradle and which has a micro USB port for the charging cable, then plug it into a standard USB port either on your computer or use a plug adaptor. It is important to make sure you put the We-Vibe 4 Plus in the cradle the right way around. This took me a little while to realize, if the lid won’t fit on, turn the We-Vibe the other way. There is also a part for the remote to sit in at the front.

You need to charge the We-Vibe 4 Plus for 4 hours before first use. When the light on the charging cradle flashes it is charging, when it’s on constantly it is fully charged or if not on at all then there is no power or the We-Vive 4 Plus needs turning around the right way. On a full charge the We-Vibe 4 Plus will last around 3 hours.

The remote control takes a lithium coin cell battery. I found it very hard to get the battery latch door to open however.

Functions

The We-Vibe 4 Plus can be controlled by the button on the toy, the remote control, or the fantastic We-Vibe app.

I used the app more than the other options. I love tech so this definitely appealed to me. Unfortunately I recently downgraded to the iPhone 4 which it is unable to sync with, so set it up to the man’s iPhone 4S. The app also works with android phones. Just search for it in the app or play store. You will need to connect the vibe to the app which is very simple, just ask it to find your vibe! Make sure you have your bluetooth turned on. I definitely preferred using the app to the other options, but it isn’t without its glitches. The bluetooth does sometimes cut out and have to reconnect, although this is probably more of an issue with the old iPhone than the We-Vibe 4 Plus. The app shows the battery life of the toy which I love, there’s nothing more gutting than nearly reaching orgasm and the toy dying. With this, I can be prepared and know when to recharge. The We-Vibe 4 Plus has 10+ settings on the app. Each setting has a display to show you the different waves from each of the motor on the clit and g-spot. You can keep them linked to you increase the intensity on them both at the same time, or unlink them so you can have more intensity in one area than the other. The ‘plus’ is that you can also create your own patterns! Certainly a great feature and lots of fun.

If you chose to use the remote then the top button is to turn it on and increase the intensity, the bottom button turns it off or decreases intensity and the side buttons scroll through the different patterns. Please note the remote is only water resistant, not waterproof. The remote is rather small, and given the amount of times I lose the TV remotes, I’m pretty sure I would lose it around the bed.

For the button on the We-Vibe 4 Plus itself, hold it down to turn on/off and push one to go through each setting.

In Use

The app is fun to use and certainly brings sex toys to another level. The We-Vibe 4 Plus fits me quite well, but the inside arm could do with being a little larger I think. The Vibe has some quite strong vibrations, but I would still like them to be a little stronger as it’s harder to direct them to the right places. I tend to prefer constant vibrations, but some of the patterns were tempting for a while too. I was keen to test the We-Vibe 4 Plus out and about, it was comfortable to wear most of the time, but hurts a little when siting down/standing up. The app didn’t sync when we first went out as I think it had perhaps turned off. Trying to push the button on the vibe discretely was rather tricky! On medium-high settings you can hear the We-Vibe too much to have it turned on without everyone trying to work out where the buzzing is coming from.

We-Connect

One of the huge selling points of the We-Vibe 4 Plus is that you can control it from anywhere in the world. As I was trying to use an iPhones 4S and 4 I had issues with this as I could not connect it as I wanted. Using the app connected to your vibe, you can send a private secure link to your lover anywhere and invite them to connect to your device.

Cleaning

The We-Vibe 4 Plus is very easy to clean with hot soapy water or toy cleaner. Clean the We-Vibe 4 Plus before and after every use.

Summary

The app is what makes the We-Vibe 4 Plus stand out against all over couples toys. With a great clear interface, simple connection and the ability to connect from anywhere on what is already a fantastically popular toy. After using this, you will be wanting all your toys to connect to an app. If you love the look of the We Vibe 4 Plus but aren’t too bothered about an app, check out the We-Vibe 4.

The Ora may not cause me any orgasms but can certainly replicate oral sex with added vibration

The Lelo Ora is the first toy I have used which simulates oral sex . The Ora is part of the Insignia range from Lelo which was released in January. The Ora is available in black, deep rose and midnight blue.

The Ora is round in shape with a flattened base made of body safe silicone with a metallic plastic interior featuring the LELO logo embossed on both sides and a handle.

Packaging

The Ora is packaged in a glossy black outer sleeve which features images or the Ora and information in six different languages. Inside the sleeve the Ora is packaged in a luxury black box where the Ora sits in a black textured foam insert. The box contains the Ora, the UK wall charging cable, instructions, user manual with one year warranty and authenticity card as well as a storage pouch.

Material

The Lelo Ora is made from FDA approved body safe silicone which appears seamless and ABS plastic for the silver inside.

Charging

The Ora is rechargeable and charges using a UK plug which has a cable to insert into the Ora near the base. When charging the buttons on the Ora flash. The Ora has up to an hours use when fully charged and 90 days stand by. It takes between 2 – 3 hours to charge the Ora.

Lock

The Lelo Ora does have a lock feature. I could however find no where which mentions this, I found out by pressing buttons out of interest. To lock the Ora push and hold down the + and – buttons. To unlock do the same.

Functions

To turn on the Ora press the + button and press the – button to turn the Ora off. Use the + and – to increase and decrease the vibrations also. To change the stimulation pattern press the () button. There are ten different patterns to flick through which are demonstrated in the instructions. These all have a different movement and/or vibration. To unleash the intense setting hold down the () button for 3 seconds.

Cleaning

The Ora is fully waterproof and can be cleaned with warm water and toy cleaner or soap.

In Use

I have a love/hate relationship with the Ora. It’s a lovely high quality toy as you would expect from Lelo, easy to hold and can comfortably find my clit. With a bit of water based lubricant, to me it achieves the ‘tongue’ effect, and with when relaxing it feels good. It irks me slightly as relaxing isn’t something I’m very good at, and the mechanic sounds of the toy are rather distracting. Oral sex isn’t something that makes me orgasm, so I wasn’t expecting miracles here, but the Ora for me is great for foreplay. It definitely has an effect. For those who crave a bit more power, the intense setting which gives 30% more vibration is a great feature as honestly I can’t tell the difference on the + and – buttons.

When using the Ora I can’t reach anywhere else as it basically cock blocks me! My fingers can’t reach as it is in the way and if I use a dildo the positioning of the Ora isn’t quite right. The Ora is a selfish toy, but that’s probably more down to my anatomy.

Summary

The Ora may not create earth shattering orgasms, and for some the ‘tongue’ may not even get anywhere near the right place. However it still has the right amount of vibration and swirls to create the desired effect for me and replicate oral sex.

A high quality great toy which for us caused orgasms together and alone, but may be an issue for different body types.

The Lelo Ida is the first toy designed specifically for use by couples which I have used. The Ida is part of the Insignia range from Lelo. I wrote a little bit about them when they were released. The Ida is available in black, deep rose and cerise.

The Lelo Ida is made of a rounded disc for clit stimulation and a flexible pressure point which is worn inside the woman with the intention of the man also penetrating her. Both sections of the Lelo Ida vibrate which is controlled by either the remote of a button on the Ida itself. Although the Ida is aimed at heterosexual couples it can also be used anally to stimulate the prostate.

Packaging

Lelo’s packaging is never a disappointment. A glossy black outer sleeve features an image of the Ida and information in six different languages. Inside the sleeve the Ida is packaged in a luxury black box which when opens reveals the Lelo Ida presented in a black textured foam insert which makes a pleasant change from the usual plastic of other toys. The box contains the Ida, a wireless remote, plastic key, UK wall charger, satin storage pouch and user manual with 1 year warranty and 10 year quality guarantee. The Ida could really do with a bigger storage bag, it’s a bit of a tight fit.

Material

The Lelo Ida and remote are made from FDA approved body safe silicone which appears seamless and ABS plastic for the silver top.

Charging

The remote runs from two AAA batteries which are supplied. Place the plastic key in the centre of the remote on the silver side and twist slightly anti clockwise to open the remote, insert the batteries, place the top cover back on and use the key to turn slightly clockwise. Don’t worry if you lose the key, it’s easy enough to turn using your hand. The remote has up to ten hours of play time.

The Ida is rechargeable via a lead and plug. It takes two hours to charge and has an equal play time of two hours. The Ida has a DC charge point located on the side which is fully waterproof as it is sealed from the inside. When it is fully charged it will emit a steady white glow and when it needs charging it will flash rapidly. The Ida has up to 90 days stand by.

Lock

The Idea features a lock mode which is activated by the remote. Hold down the + and – buttons simultaneously for around three seconds to activate and deactivate. This appears to only lock the remote though, I can still activate the Ida by the button on the Ida itself.

Functions

The functions of the Ida take a little getting used to. This is one of the occasions when I actually had to read the instructions! The Ida is special as it has sense motion technology. This means in the first two modes you don’t have to push a button as such, you just move the remote.

To turn the Ida on push the small button located on the right hand side of the word Lelo. You then need to turn on the remote by pushing the + button on the remote. It takes a few seconds for the connection to happen. A light on the Ida and the remote will flash slowly when the connection is established. The remote has a range of 36 meters (118 feet), which seems a bit excessive really!

SenseMotion Mode one involves turning the remote to a 90 degree angle. When the remote is flat, there is very little or no vibrations, by turning it you are effectively increasing the vibration. When the remote is vertical you are at full vibration. This is my favorite way to use the Ida, no messing around with pushing buttons. The remote starts off so that when you increase the vibrations the remote also vibrates. This means you could also use the remote to stimulate another area if you wish. If the vibrations in the remote are a distraction, you can turn them off by holding the ( ) button for five seconds and the Ida will use a memory function to remember whether you want them on or off.

SenseMotion mode two is activated by pushing the ( ) button again. This time the vibrations are increased by increasing the speed of the movement of the remote. I’m not so keen on this setting as my arm aches after a while of having to constantly keep the remote in motion.

Next are six pre programmed settings for which you can change the vibration strength with the + and – buttons on the remote to suit you.

If you wish to use the Ida without the remote then leave the remote turned off and just turn the Ida on by pressing the button on the side. Press the button again to scroll through the six pre programmed settings. These settings will only work at full vibration. To change the vibration setting you have to turn the remote on.

To turn the remote off hold the – button for three seconds, similarly to turn off the Ida hold down the button for three seconds. If you leave the Ida turned on and the remote turned off, then the Ida will go into standby for an hour before turning off completely. No worries there about the battery wearing out when accidentally left on.

Cleaning

The Ida is fully waterproof and therefore very easy to clean with toy cleaner or antibacterial soap and warm water.

In Use

We first tried the Ida in the doggy style position, I thought it would be easier so PWC could see what he was doing and gave him the remote. The remote vibrating is a great feature when someone else is in control of the remote as they are able to tell which level of vibration the Ida is on even if they can’t quite feel it themselves. The disc of the Ida didn’t really hit my clitoris at all in this position and for a start it was a bit tricky to work out what was going on and the settings. Okay I admit, at this point I hadn’t read the instructions and was still a bit confused what even the plastic key was for. I like to see if I can work things out on my own which I rather failed at on this occasion. In this position the vibrations were focused on the underside of his cock but the pressure point wasn’t rotating towards it and it wasn’t really doing much for either of us.

We changed to missionary position, worked out the settings and I took control of the remote. This way was a lot more comfortable for both of us. The disc was more focused on my clit in this position and as it has a large surface area was able to stimulate more. With the added pressure of PWC pushing into it the vibrations were much stronger. He could also feel the vibrations more in this position from the Ida rotating inside me and hitting my g spot. The Ida definitely worked well causing orgasms in this position.

When used on my own the Ida still managed to stimulated my g spot which a lot of toys fail to do. I pushed down on the clit stimulator to position it where I wanted, I needed the extra pressure so it wasn’t completely hands free for me. I much preferred the higher settings of the Ida which unfortunately does of course mean more noise from the vibrations which is slightly distracting when in a silent house. The vibrations themselves were strong enough for me at maximum.

The Ida’s disc and pressure point can only be controlled simultaneously. I prefer this as if there’s too many different settings to compete with then I will just end up getting frustrated, but some may prefer the disc and pressure point at different speeds which isn’t possible.

Summary

Overall I think the Ida is going to be a bit hit and miss. As a toy which is designed to fit the woman it’s difficult to match all types of anatomy not to mention that you also have to attempt to fit a male penis in there too. When it does work which luckily it did for me, it is a great toy and will definitely be kept by the bed.

A great set which would make the perfect gift for Valentines. The Lelo Mia 2 is a strong upgrade on the original Mia with amazing vibrations, rechargeable from a USB port and waterproof. The blindfold and cuffs look and feel luxurious, although would not suffice for rough bondage.

The Lelo Adore Me Pleasure Set looks luxurious. Known for it’s award winning packaging, this wouldn’t fail to amaze your partner on Valentines. This set is part of the Lelo “Save Your Valentines Day” campaign to replace the last minute buying of flowers and chocolates. Instead of dying after a week, and being scoffed in one sitting, Lelo can bring you hour upon hour of pleasure as well as adding an extra dimension of spice to your love life.

This set is presented in a lovely gift box with ‘LELO’ written in the centre, protected by a branded adore me sleeve. In the box you will find a Mia 2, Intima Silk Blindfold, Sutra Chainlink Cuffs, Satin storage pouch and a one year warranty.

The main show

The Mia 2 is a discrete lipstick-like bullet vibrator which recharges through USB. Although really, it looks more like a mini mascara. It wouldn’t look out of place in your make up case. It is a lovely red shade, and features the Lelo brand along with a silver band around the toy. This toy is only available in red in this set, bought on it’s own it is available in purple, pink or black. Simply remove the screw off lid, plug it into your laptop or computer for a few hours and you’re ready to go. It looks like a normal USB stick which would be plugged in, so there is nothing suspicious looking to the unknowing. Whilst really, you know you’re charging your vibe! When it is charging a pink light flashes, when fully charged the light will have a steady glow. When it needs charging again, it will emit a red light. As the vibe is round, I am unable to plug anything into the USB port next to the one the Mia 2 is occupying which is a bit of a pain though. More my laptops design flaw though.

The Lelo Mia 2 is made of ABS plastic which is phthalates free and easy to clean with soap and water or antibacterial toy spray. I would recommend you use a water based lubricant with the toy if required, although because of it’s smooth surface it probably won’t be needed.

Is it easy to use?

The vibe doesn’t come with an instruction manual, which may be annoying to some. It can easily be found on the Lelo website if you get stuck, however I found it simple to work out how to use.
To turn the Lelo Mia 2 on, push the + button. Both the + and – buttons are made of silicone. You can then work through the varying vibration strength modes by pressing + to increase, and – to decrease. To get to the stimulating patterns go to maximum vibrations by pressing + and the hold down the + button again for a few seconds. Use the + button to scroll through the settings 2 – 4 and then press the – button to return to constant vibration mode. To turn the vibe off, hold down the – button to decrease the vibrations until they stop completely. Each time you press a button, the pink light will flash.

You can lock the Lelo Mia 2 by pressing down the + and – buttons for 5 seconds. The LED will light up, then go off to show it is locked. This is great for when your Mia 2 is travelling with you. I keep mine in my handbag in the perfectly sized satin storage bag, so an unwanted buzzing could be awkward!
I found that when in use the buttons were hard to locate, so had to keep looking at the Mia 2 to change the settings which was a bit of a pain.

The Mia 2 has outdone the Leaf Spirit as my favorite clit toy. The vibrations are much stronger throughout the toy although the power is situated mainly in the tip and the vibrations themselves are more rumbly. The shape of the toy is great, smooth and tapered the same as the original Mia. The biggest difference is that the Mia 2 is now completely waterproof, so can survive the shower, bath, or if it rains when you fancy going Al Fresco. The original Mia had up to four hours of battery life, the Mia 2 can only handle two hours. However, if that’s the price to pay for stronger, better vibrations, I’m willing to take it.

The Lelo Mia 2 is extremely quiet, I even dared to use it with a house full of people which I wouldn’t normally do.

What else comes in the set

Also in the set is a gorgeous 100% silk Intima blindfold in red, with Lelo’s signature jacquard pattern on the other side. It has an elasticated band which keeps the blindfold on your head, which was too large for me, and then you can tie it tighter with the ribbons. It is a luxury item, and blocks out the light well.

The Sutra chainlink cuffs are made of silk and suede, and have a nickel-free metal chain. They are lovely to wear and don’t hurt at all. You clip the chain together to adjust the tightness. I could slip my slender wrists through the cuffs, they’re purely more for looking good than extreme bondage, but a great addition for those who are just starting out.
It is quite tricky to fold them up nicely to fit back in the box though!

Overall

Over all it is a fantastic set, if not just for the Lelo Mia 2 but also the addition of those sexy teasing items.

A great set which would make the perfect gift for Valentines. The Lelo Mia 2 is a strong upgrade on the original Mia with amazing vibrations, rechargeable from a USB port and waterproof. The blindfold and cuffs look and feel luxurious, although would not suffice for rough bondage.

I always love getting parcels, and with the plain packaging from Lovehoney no one knew what it was waiting on my doorstep; The Tracey Cox Supersex Remote Control Vibrator Love Egg

It’s quite an expensive egg vibrator but with free delivery it seems verging on reasonable.
I’m a bit of a nightmare for throwing away packaging, but this time I’m keeping it as it isn’t too bulky and works well for storing the egg.

As L wasn’t around when the egg arrived, I had a play with it myself. The instructions were easy to follow, well, it’s never that complicated to put batteries in a toy is it! The egg unscrews for two of the batteries, and another battery to go in the remote. The batteries are thankfully included with the product, there is nothing worse than buying a new toy and then having to hunt the house to find batteries! It does use some strange batteries though, 1 x 23A battery and 2 x N batteries. Must admit, I’ve never even heard of these types.

It is made of smooth coated plastic, and aesthetically pleasing with a silver band around the egg where it unscrews. When I first looked at it, the size did seem a bit big. However in comparison to vibrators, it’s about the same girth with a 4.5 inch circumference. I think it’s just the fact it looks like a fat tampon. The thought of getting it stuck there did cross my mind, all those pelvic floor exercises may have a downside! The cord is strong so removing the sex toy wasn’t a problem at all.

I felt the vibrations in my hand and flicked through the seven different speeds and patterns, then with a little water based lube, I inserted it easily. The shape and feel of the egg are very comfortable, and it feels snug when inserted. You don’t need to be told to leave the cord out right? The first three settings are the vibrations, but the fun starts when you get onto the pattered settings.
It makes quite a loud buzzing sound, but once inserted, I actually couldn’t feel much on the lower settings. I placed my hand on my stomach and I could feel it vibrating and after playing around with the remote found the rhythm I liked.
I didn’t want to play too much though, as it’s a partners toy and designed for teasing so I packed it up and waited for L to come play.

The remote is said to work up to 10 metres away, so a few days later when L was watching TV, I snook around the house in my lingerie, egg inserted, and threw him the remote control and waited anxiously, expecting my body to suddenly start buzzing. Nothing. I waited longer. Nothing. L came in, we soon discovered that it had ran out of battery!

As a toy for teasing and foreplay, the egg is ideal. It’s not intended to make you orgasm, so don’t get your hopes up. For a warm up however and some fun with a partner, it cannot be faulted. As long as you have plenty of batteries!

The Doxy Massager is the UK’s answer to the much talked about Hitachi Magic Wand, only more powerful!

It arrived packaged in a plain brown box and plastic sleeve, although I am now aware they have some lovely white packaging for storage.

The Doxy is a rather large toy at 13 inches however is light in weight, it is comprised of ABS plastic handle with a medical grade PVC head which contains no latex or phthalates. The Doxy I bought has a white body, Doxy is also available in other colors. Underneath the PVC head is cast aluminium. It is easy to clean with soap and a damp cloth. It has a fabulous long lead so isn’t limiting to where you can use it. As it is mains powered the Doxy will not run out of battery during use unless you have a power cut. This also means that the Doxy is not waterproof, so please do not take it anywhere near water.

It’s also a very safe and hygienic toy, the head covering is made from phthalates free, hypoallergenic medical grade non-porous PVC.

Intended as a sports massager, I can honestly say this product is going to spend more time down stairs than anywhere else although it does feel lovely on my back.

To turn the doxy on simply press the on button. All buttons are located with easy access on the handle and are a great size so easy to press when in use. It has two different types of setting. The first is a constant vibration which you can increase/decrease easily using the + and – buttons. There are 10 variants of speed. As the Doxy gives off such deep vibrations, if you are using this toy on your clit you will only need to use it on a low setting otherwise you may start to feel a bit numb.

To access the pulse setting, turn the Doxy off. When turning it on again hold the on button down for two seconds. The fantastic thing about the pulse setting is now if you use the + and – buttons you can change the speed pattern of the vibrations. To return to the constant vibration mode turn the Doxy off and on again.

You can use a water or silicone based lubricant with this toy, however avoid oil based lubricants. The Doxy is not for internal use.

Doxy claim to be the ‘World’s Most Powerful Sports Wand Massager’, and I would say this is absolutely true. The vibrations are very strong and as you increase the power the vibrations become deeper.

As it delivers such strong vibrations, as you would expect it can be quite noisy. On a lower setting it’s medium noise, on the highest setting very loud. Definitely need an empty house for this toy, but worth it! You can’t expect massive power without noise.

If you want power, if you thrive off the power from a vibrator, this is the vibrator for you.

The Doxy also fits Hitachi magic wand attachments which is an added bonus.

The Ultimate O is part of the new range of Ann Summers toys created by ‘The O Team‘. It comes packaged in a clear box with white writing and a black cardboard cutout. Simple and not too fussy. The Ultimate O is designed to take orgasms up to the ‘third level’.

It is made of smooth pink silicone and a plastic white base and features three parts, two which massage your labia and one for your clit. It definitely does not look like any toy I have seen before. As it is made of silicone I would recommend the use of a water based lubricant.

The Ultimate O is fully rechargeable, the charger plugs into a socket, however there are currently issues with the charger so many have been recalled, and connects through the base of the toy.

The toy fits well on my labia and clit. It has seven different settings which can be distinguished between by changing colors when the button is pressed. To turn the toy off hold the button down. Each setting varies in speed, pattern and vibrations and slowly builds up to take you to the ‘third level’. I find the vibrations to be quite buzzy although quiet. If you want a quick orgasm, this isn’t the toy for you.
Due to the design of the toy, I find it impossible to also have penetration which I need to orgasm as well as hold the toy in place as the base is in the way. There is no other way the toy can be used to rectify this.

The Ultimate O in my opinion is more suited to teasing. It creates a great feeling on the vulva but for me there isn’t enough there to create orgasms of any level.

If you read my previous review of the Lelo Mia 2 then you already know my thoughts on Lelo’s products and probably know exactly where this review is headed. If not then read on to find out how much I love this vibrator!

The Lelo Siri 2 is a clitoral vibrator that takes all the style and excellent design from Lelo’s other products and improves on them even further. It works well on the clitoris, but also works well as an all over massager. The varying vibration patterns are wonderful for sexual teasing of the nipples or any other erogenous zone you can think of. Not only that, you can get a discount on the product as well. Just use a Lelo coupon.

The packaging

If there’s one thing that Lelo does well (there’s actually many!) it’s packaging. The Siri 2 comes in a sexy box that’s the same color as the vibrator and is pretty discreet as to it’s contents, just having the Lelo brand name embossed on the front. Inside is the warranty, user’s manual and the sex toy, along with the charging cable and a nice satin sleeve to store it in.

What’s it made out of?

Lelo’s Siri 2 is made of silicone and ABS. The plastic buttons are hard and firm to the touch. The material is odorless and smooth.

The design

Ergonomically designed is one way I would describe all the sex toys in Lelo’s range and the Siri is no different, it’s very comfortable to hold, fitting perfectly in one hand. It’s reasonably discreet, in fact if you didn’t already know it was a vibrator I’m not sure that you would assume it is – It looks like a stylish massager not out of place in your bathroom cabinet.

The controls – how to use it

The controls are the same as the other Lelo vibrators – +, -, ↑ and ↓. The + and – buttons control switching the vibrator on and off, along with gradually increasing or decreasing the intensity of the vibrations. The ↑ and ↓ buttons allow you to cycle through the 6 different patterns. The buttons are positioned that they’re easy to press using the same hand as you’re using to hold the vibrator during use.

The power!

One really noticeable difference about the Lelo Siri 2 compared to the other Lelo sex toys is how much more powerful the vibrations are. They seem a lot more deep than in previous toys but still very quiet. Even with this noticeable increase in power it still only takes 2 hours to charge which gives you 4 hours of continuous use.

The big problem

Unfortunately the Siri 2 is not waterproof and there’s no cover for where the charging cable plugs in which means care needs to be taken when cleaning. Sex toy wipes are the suggested method of cleaning as any excess water using other methods could potentially seep into the charging hole and damage it internally.

The Lelo Siri 2 has made it to the top of my ‘favorite vibrators list’. Every new sex toy Lelo releases I’m left wondering how they can improve on it, but the Siri 2 is proof that somehow they manage to!

I’ve never had a rechargeable vibrator before so was rather excited when the Leaf Spirit arrived!

The box for the leaf spirit is lovely and plain. Looking at it you wouldn’t know what was inside, the only giveaways are ‘natural pleasure‘ and the site address containing ‘vibes‘ unless you look at the back of the box. I love that it’s a simple magnetic opening. Never under appreciate a good box!
When you open it, the first thing you see if the user manual in seven different languages. To say it’s eco friendly, it seems a bit of a waste of cardboard for the user manual to need to be in, however I like it nevertheless and the little bit of velcro that keeps it shut. I’m so easily pleased at times!
The charger comes with 4 adaptors, brilliant for if you’re travelling with the toy. There is a canvas tote for storing the leaf, however it is a bit oversized for such a small toy.

On to the review

The leaf itself is a lot smaller than I expected, it’s the same size as my lip balm! It has all the markings on the top side, however it did come with an apology which made me smile.

“Hey there! Even though you might not mind the markings, some people do. So for those people we just wanted to say sorry for having all those little symbols on your product. Unfortunately we are forced to put them on due to international laws, so please don’t be mad at us”
Don’t worry leaf, I’m not mad. It’s a good enough reason.

I put the vibrator on charge as I flicked through the manual. The charging time is approximately 2 hours for up to 1 hour 15 minutes play on lower settings or 40 minutes on higher.
You’re meant to charge the leaf for 3 hours prior to it’s first use… I must admit, I was a little impatient here!

The material

The vibrator is made of 100% seamless silicone, however if you run your finger over the seam you can feel it. When in use it is hard to notice however. The silicone has a bit of pull to it, so a little water based lube won’t hurt. It also seems to pick up lint rather easily, so make sure you wash it with soapy water or toy cleaner.
I rather like the green color, I think it gives it quite a clean fresh feel, however some may like a variety of color. The shape of the toy is a slight ‘C’ shape which is curved to your body. I find it a good fit as it is small enough to cover the vulva with the tip on your clit without making you feel swamped. The centre of the toy is solid, but it softens towards the edges nicely. It is a tough contender for the ‘eco-sexy’ We Vibe.

The motor of the vibrator

The motor is mainly in the tip of the toy where it is positioned on the clit. It has one button to push which lights up when the toy is turned on and flashes as you move up through the speeds until you reach the top speed. I can’t really see the light when it is in position, the button is easy to locate thankfully. It took me a little while to get used to the controls as I am used to pushing the button once to go to the next speed, where in this case it turned off, and when I held it down to try and turn it off it increased. It was all a bit backwards to what I was used to. I do actually now prefer the smoothness of being able to change speed by holding down the button, the only flaw being that you can’t go to lower speeds again without turning it off.
It also has a clever ‘lock’ feature so that it doesn’t accidentally get turned on in your bag. Press three times to lock, and three to unlock. Simple!

It contains a single motor powered by PowerBullet technology. On lower settings it is really quiet, and as you would expect gets louder as the vibrations get stronger. I was worried that it would be heard through the walls, but I was assured it was fine. When held against the body, you have to apply quite a bit of pressure to feel the full vibrations, I prefer holding the leaf and using just the main tip part which was more effective for me. The vibrations on the highest setting were definitely strong enough to get me off.
It sits well enough to be used hands free during sex, or could also be put in your knickers as you go out for an extra buzz. I have tried this on a trip to the supermarket, definitely made shopping a bit more fun!

The leaf is waterproof, however the hole for the charger did worry me slightly. I didn’t want water getting in and damaging the motor. I can say thought I braved it and the toy is perfectly safe when underwater. No worrying needed!

Overall I must admit, it is my new favorite toy! Once you pick it up, you just don’t want to put it down again.
